'We haven't made a single dollar': restaurant owners mourn passion project

Mourning the end of their passion project due to rising costs and low foot traffic, Rasam co-owner Ranga Tiruman says their South Indian restaurant will serve its last customers at the weekend.

For two years, Mr Tiruman says the team poured everything into Rasam, cooking in the kitchen, serving customers, while working full-time jobs and digging into their own pockets to pay bills and salaries of additional staff.
